Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] sched/fair: Improve scan efficiency of SIS
The wakeup fastpath for fair tasks, select_idle_sibling() aka SIS,
plays an important role in maximizing the usage of cpu resources and
can greatly affect overall performance of the system.
The SIS tries to find an idle cpu inside the targeting LLC to place
the woken-up task. The cache hot cpus are preferred, but if none of
them is idle, just fallback to the other cpus of that LLC by firing
a domain scan. The domain scan works well under light pressure by
simply traversing the cpus of the LLC due to lots of idle cpus can
be available.
But things change. The LLCs are getting bigger in modern and future
machines, and the cloud service providers are consistently trying to
reduce TCO by pushing more load squeezing all kinds of resources.
So the fashion of simply traversing doesn't fit well to the future
requirement.
There are already features like SIS_{UTIL,PROP} exist to cope with
the scalability issue by limiting the scan depth, and it would be
better if we can improve the way of how it scans as well. And this
is exactly what the SIS_FILTER is born for.
So this patchset will focus on improving the efficiency of the SIS
domain scan:
- Patch 1~2, give a chance to scan for idle cores if has_idle_core
is true even when the LLC is overloaded (nr_idle_scan == 0). This
helps exploiting the cpu resources by more actively kicking idle
cores working.
- Patch 3, add check on whether there are any tasks pending right
at the beginning of __update_idle_core(), so the has_idle_cores
hint won't be mistakenly updated if the cpu isn't idle any more.
- Patch 4, skip SIS domain scan if the target LLC is fully busy.
So the cpu resources can be used more wisely rather than wasting
time trying to find an idle cpu that probably not exist.
- Patch 5, introduce the SIS_FILTER feature to optimize the way of
scanning LLC, helping SIS_{UTIL,PROP} to work more efficiently.
Benchmark
=========
Tests are done in a dual socket (2 x 24C/48T) machine modeled Intel
Xeon(R) Platinum 8260, with SNC configuration:
SNC on: 4 NUMA nodes each of which has 12C/24T
SNC off: 2 NUMA nodes each of which has 24C/48T
All of the benchmarks are done inside a normal cpu cgroup in a clean
environment with cpu turbo disabled.
Based on tip sched/core 0fba527e959d (v5.19.0).

Conclusion
==========
Substantial improvement can be seen in hackbench pipe tests, while
others are generally neutral. It is because if the workload has
already had a relatively high SIS success rate, e.g. tbench4~=50%
and netperf~=100% compared to hackbench~=3.5%, the cost of trying
to improve its efficiency will negate lots of benefit it brings.
But the real world is more complicated. Different workloads can be
co-located on the same machine to share resources, and their profiles
can vary quite much, so the SIS success rate is not predictable.
Please see more detailed analysis in individual patches.
v4 -> v5:
- Add limited scan for idle cores when overloaded, suggested by Mel
- Split out several patches since they are irrelevant to this scope
- Add quick check on ttwu_pending before core update
- Wrap the filter into SIS_FILTER feature, suggested by Chen Yu
- Move the main filter logic to the idle path, because the newidle
balance can bail out early if rq->avg_idle is small enough and
lose chances to update the filter.
v3 -> v4:
- Update filter in load_balance rather than in the tick
- Now the filter contains unoccupied cpus rather than overloaded ones
- Added mechanisms to deal with the false positive cases
v2 -> v3:
- Removed sched-idle balance feature and focus on SIS
- Take non-CFS tasks into consideration
- Several fixes/improvement suggested by Josh Don
v1 -> v2:
- Several optimizations on sched-idle balancing
- Ignore asym topos in can_migrate_task
- Add more benchmarks including SIS efficiency
- Re-organize patch as suggested by Mel Gorman
